Foreign policy issues will be on the menu for the expected meeting between Joe Biden and Donald Trump. In the meantime, the United States will spend the remaining six billion dollars dedicated to Ukraine, the national security advisor said on Sunday, November 10. As Joe Biden took the lead in an international coalition to support Ukraine, which finds itself at a crucial moment after Russian military victories and a shortage of soldiers, Jake Sullivan warned of the risks linked to cessation of American support for kyiv.
One of the goals of his administration in the remaining months will be to “put Ukraine in the strongest possible position on the battlefield so that it is in the strongest possible position at the table of negations”, he continued during an interview with the American television channel CBS.
This speech comes as the next tenant of the White House has repeatedly declared that he can end the war.in one day” to the war in Ukraine, without ever detailing how he would go about it, but probably within the framework of an agreement which would require that kyiv cede part of its territory to Moscow. The Kremlin thus estimated on Sunday that the Republican had sent during the campaign “positive signals” concerning the conflict, since it evoked a possible “peace” and did not show “desire to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia”.
“The president will have the opportunity to explain to President Trump how he sees things, where they stand, and to discuss with him how he plans to approach these issues when he takes office,” continued Jake Sullivan, again citing the situation in the Middle East.
